Hi guys. I can’t find the regular NP Landers thread. …how do I respond to an inquiry?
From within your email program.

To confirm, there is no way to correspond with a potential buyer via the NPs UI; I simply take their email address and start manually corresponding via email? How does buy now work, then?

You should have received an email copy of the inquiry by email. That's where you start, then reply to that email.

Sorry guys; one more question as I might be moments away from my first NP Landers sale :) I’ve never used Escrow.com. Do I want to turn this switch on? And might the concierge option beneath it be overkill?

Great job. Innovating lightyears ahead of industry "leaders" with a fraction of their budget :ahem: Afternic/GD

Molly, I would think twice about trying to use Escrow.com. My buyer backed out after reading their online reviews. What is the sale price? Check out escrowdomains.com.

Thanks for tip, @korganian. This is my first time using it and I am not impressed. Have you tried these other guys? If they’re as good as they seem, their fee seems reasonable.

I have not, but I called them twice with questions and they were very helpful. I will be using them for future escrow transactions. An attorney there named Reggie handles their domain sales and he spoke with me and told me he could do a simple video call with buyers to satisfy the whole KYC thing that Escrow.com turns into such a fiasco that blows many sales. I really hope NP adds EscrowDomains to the payment method options.

email notification to the seller instantly after the price was revealed.
Do you also want to be emailed about offers that are less than your minimum offer?

Our landers send the buyer to your chosen payment method to pay, and also send you both an email to which either of you can reply to contact the other person.

Will the process be designed so that NamePros retains ownership of the entire process as much as possible, even when external (API) partners are involved?

Domain Name Holding Service is for payment plans; Escrow.com holds the domain until they’ve collected all payments over a period of time. If paid in full, they transfer the domain to the buyer. If buyer reneges, then you keep received payments and they transfer the domain back to you.

Domain concierge is if you or the buyer want Escrow.com to take possession of the domain until the payment is secured. Once payment is secured, the domain is released to the buyer by Escrow.com.

They’re very similar options where timeline (and fees) are the biggest differences.

For a simple domain transaction without a paranoid party, you wouldn’t need either of them.

Personally i use

1) BIN with make offer as the BIN (that i wrote a suggestion to remove the make offer there)
2)BIN with make offer with no min price

I feel that putting a minimum price makes the buyer think the min price is a price ill sell it for and not the start of negotiations but thats just me.

As a general note about your question, i think if someone is making an offer below the minimum offer, the seller should be notified by email anyways.

We're the only service that makes it clear to buyers that it's the minimum to start a conversation/negotiations, not the price.

What's the purpose of a minimum offer if you'll still be notified about offers below that amount?

Let us know.

About the first thing- yes but also when you have BIN +make offer you are basically eliminating the chance for a BIN so as i mentioned before, better to remove Make offer add "need help" and thats how you are basically having a change for BIN but also for a convo

About the second note- as i mentioned my use case is of BIN +need help (using make offer as bin to prevent the make offer

OR

Make offer without min to make sure i dont get anything stuck in their head as to a good enough price to sell but in cases people also have min offer, sometimes a buyer will offer something below that threshold but its still interesting to me as a seller

1) interest level data
2) get back to them, start a convo, educate them - each with his own tactics

It's not always that simple, and depends on the situation. There are still many companies who prefer the simplicity and certainty of a direct BIN purchase. They choose to hit the BIN button to secure the domain immediately, avoiding any potential delays and uncertainties of the “Make Offer” process, even while BIN and MO are offered simultaneously.

Some, but better to have both options.
Im certain many here would want to have the option of BIN + Need help besides whats available now.

It's an interesting idea for sure.

In that case, the solution is an option to hide the offer field when you have a price set. It is not to notify you when the offer is below your minimum offer.

Do we understand correctly?

IMO there are three different ways to list a domain:
1) BIN only
2) MIN offer only
3) both BIN and MIN offer together.

A) For #2 and #3 I'd like to see all offers regardless of whether they're $1 or of they met the MIN set for that domain.
B) For #1, if the buyer makes an offer of any sort, I'd like to see it too.
C) For #1, #2, and #3 I do not think a buyer should be able to see the MIN offer. Thats just something, for me really, to use as a sort of tool.

Again, this is purely IMO. Others may handle it differently. Right now I send all offers to my email regardless. Its not a big deal for me to check every day. Last night, wee hours for me, I see a buyer filled out the form, verified the email and was likely shown the BIN so I will engage that person today, hopefully get some sort of feedback.

But, I'd like to see everything because I've made many a sale from just an email inquiry with no offer at all. IMO of course. :)

Do you want the minimum offer that you set to do anything functionally, or do you just want to be able to have a private note on the domain about the minimum offer that only you use as a reference?

You may want to enable our new "Send all inquiries" feature, which sends an email for everything, including offers below your minimum offer and unconfirmed inquiries.

Does that help?

1) Just as a reference.
2) Thank you, that will definitely work (for me)!

Thanks!
